Authors in the Afternoon with John Casey

May 23, 2017
4:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m.

Fort Smith author John Casey will sign copies of his book, "Yellowwood and Other Stories." These short stories offer glimpses into the lives of ordinary people who find themselves in dilemmas. Neither paragons nor anit-heroes, the characters struggle with religious faith, cope with death and maneuver through tricky family relationships. The stories are a record of episodes in their lives, moments that are common to many of us. A lifelong resident of Fort Smith, John Casey is an English teacher in Van Buren. Hiking and canoeing the Natural State are his favorite free time activities. He is married and has a daughter who is a fourth generation teacher. Copies will be available for purchase and signing at this open-house style event.
